A Little Girls Long journey.

There arrived in San Francisco the other
day a little German girl who travelled
alone from her native land. Her name is
Cresencia Schwartz, and her age is IL
years. Without understanding one word
OF English this little Teutonic maiden
traversed the broad Atlantic ocean and
crossed the American continent without q
companion, trusting solely for her safety
during her 1000 miles journey on the
kindness OF the people whom she chanced
10 meet. Her widowed mother in Ger
many was too poor 70 support her, and,
an uncle in San francisco having offered
20 adopt her, the mother prepared little
baggage, gave kiss OF farewell. and dis
patched her daughter on the long journey,
which occupied two months. San Fran

Quietly but positively the reforms
that have long been demanded by
the people, so far as the administra-
tive branch of the government is
concerned, are in vigorous effect.
Economy and law are the standards
of official action. Partisanship does
not now throw its sword into the
scales of justice, Submission to as
sessments by public officials for par
tlsan purposes IS not a condition of
public service. Contracts are not
let to the highest partisan bidder
and the public lands are safe within
the pale of the statutes. What more
could be said in behalf Of the great
party which brought about these
things in the brief space of twenty
two months?

POLYGAMY MUST &C.

The anti-Mormon bill as amended
passed the house Wednesday with.
out division. The bill, by the adop-
ton of the Tucker substitute for the
Edmund's bill, makes the lawful
husband or wife of any person pros
ecuted for bigamy, polygamy or un-
lawful cohabitation q competent
witness against the accused, and
further provides for the registration
Of all marriages and making it mis-
demeanor for any person to violate
the provisions relative
to such registration. II an
nuls all territorial laws providing for
TIE identification of the votes of
electors at any election and also
laws comforting on the territorial
courts the lawful power TO determine
divorce cases and abollshes woman
sufferage in the territory of Utah.
Penalties arc subscribed for unlaw-
full intercourse and polygamy is
defined as marriage between one
person of one sex and more than one
person of another sex and is declar-
ed to be a felony. The financial
corporations known as the Church Of
Latter Day SAINTS and the Perpetual
immigration Fund are desolved, and
the attorney general is directed to
wind them up by process of court,
and all laws for the organization OF
the militia of the territory and the
creation of the Nauvoo legislation
are annulled. Polygamlsts are made
ineligible to vote and test oath is
prescribed to all persons desiring to
vote that they will obey the laws of
the United States, and especially
the laws in respect to the crimes de-
fined in this and the original Ed
munds act. The bill provides for
the immediate appointment by the
president of all judges and select men
of the county and probate courts,
and by the governor of all Justices
of the peace, sherlffs, constables and
other county and district officers.
The bill as amended by the adop-
tion of the substitute, will now be
to the senate for the ac-
ton of that body.

A writer in the Country Gentleman
has these pertinent and timely words
to say to the young men growing up
on our farms:
60 to an agricultural college if
you want to become intelligent and
successful farmers. Go! and thus
raise the level of farming as an occu-
patton. Go! that you may after
ward, if you do not make more
money. better enjoy what you do
make. If there is any enjoyment at
all, it comes in knowing the cause
and reason for the various pheno-
mena constantly occurring about you.
You will better understand nature s
laws, and so be made more able to
solve the many perplexing problems
which you now have to call experts
to solve. If you are dead in earnest
about farming, an education will
never lead you from it. Then let
US, who are young and preparing to
battle with life's work, educate our
selves just as much as our means
will allow, that we may be better
farmers, better citizens, better re-
spected by the multltudes who de-
pend upon us for their welfare.
There are many fiourishing agricultu-
raj colleges in this country that are
doing an inestlmable amount of good
for those engaged In farming and
kindred occupations. and to you who
are of the right age, and have the
means (and some colleges call for
very little), my advice is to spend a
at one of these colleges, with your
eyes open, and see for yourselves
whether or not there is any value in
a four years. course at an agrlcnltu-
raj college.

4 GRO KLNG PEOPLE

In round numbers the population
Of the Uuited States increases at the
rate of one million a year The GEN.
sus of 1880 showed a population of
ever $4,000, 900. OF this increase
about one-third is from abroad.
Two natives reached the stage of
action for one foreign born resident.
The ratio of native increase must in
the future be greater, as the native
element is constantly growing lar
ger while the foreign is about sta
tionary. The immigration for last
year was little larger than that of
1884 and this year promises to ex-
ceed the last, but both years show a
decrease on several preceding years.
Many thoughtful persons are appre-
hensive of future trouble through
this rapid increase of population, so
largely drawn from foreign sources.
The spectacle of from 100000 to
100000 foreigners being absorbed
annually into our industrial force is
one, they think. which cannot be
continued without In time producing
serious disturbance. 1t should be
borne in mind that when a foreigner
comes to this country and becomes q
part of its laboring force, he be-
comes also q part of It's consuming
force. In many cases he does work
in this country which in his absence
would be done in Europe. Until
the population approaches the limit
of our producing capacity, the for
eIgner may as well work here as in
Europe. We now export grains and
meets which are consumed in Europe,
and the product of the consumers
labor is sent to us. When the Ia
borer comes over and works in this
country, he consumes more of our
agricultural product than when he is
in Europe and he only adds to the
consuming force. In time the for
eign immigration will decrease in
actual numbers, as it is already de-
creasing relatively. The number of
born Americans is every year larger,
and will increase for years; but the
inducements for foreigners to come
here will grow less and less. The
immigration question is therefore
largely one of the imagination, so
long as it is confined to tho Caucas-
ian race. The politicians who are
disturbed over it live quarter of a
century too late. This country has
passed successfully through the dan
ger they now think they see in the
future. Whatever peril there may
have been in that question when the
nation was young and the native
population small has now passed
away.

To abbreviate and neglect the
forms of politeness is really to di-
minish the sentiments and the needs
of the heart. As soon as one ceases
to express outwardly even the most
essential sentiments, these senti-
ments become weakened to certain
degree in the soul they lose some
thing of their delicacy and of their
energy. The cultivation of the
forms of pollteness must be begun in
family life between husbands and
wives, parents and children, brothers
and sisters. Till courtesy is honor
ed in the household it will not ap-
pear elsewhere.
